forEach loop is not working in jelly script

[vimal11592]

Hi,

I am trying the following code and trying to loop array of object.But it is printing complete array instead of the object from the array.

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">

<g:ui_form>

  <g:evaluate var="jvar_gr" object="true">

var gr = new GlideRecord("x_14768_catalyst_bot_library");

gr.addQuery("bot_id", "test_380ee1a0");

gr.query();

gr;

  </g:evaluate>

<j:while test="${jvar_gr.next()}" >

<p>${jvar_gr.getValue('params')}</p>

<j:forEach var="jvar_param" items="${jvar_gr.getValue('params')}">

<p>${jvar_param}</p>

</j:forEach>

</j:while>

</g:ui_form>

</j:jelly>

In above code both <p> tag prints the same value.

Can someone please help me to fix the issue.

Thanks,

Vimal

Hi Vimal,

The problem lies in the fact that param field is giving you a string value which looks like an array.

If I am retrieving the below from the param field, it has a type of string and not array.

and I am finding it hard to convert back to the array.

[{"fname" :"gaurav","lname" :"bajaj"},

{"fname" : "vimal","lname" : "mishra"}]

Sorry but for now, that's all I can about this issue.

Thanks

Gaurav
